On Saturday May 8, 50 citizens gathered at a town hall meeting in Marceline , Missouri to learn about our constitutional rights and hear some American history no longer taught in public schools.
Former Sheriff Richard Mack talked about his battle against federal mandates in Arizona . During his tenure as Graham County AZ Sheriff, federal officers informed the sheriffs of the state that they would be required to enforce the "Brady Bill." This bill required Sheriff Offices to run background checks at their expense. In 1994, Mack and six other sheriffs from across the country challenged the Brady Bill and won. In a landmark 5-4 split decision based on the Tenth Amendment; States are not subject to federal direction. This ruling will likely be used in the constitutional challenges to the National Health Care bill as Missouri asserts her sovereignty. The Supreme Court also confirmed that the county sheriff is the Chief Law Enforcement Officer (CLEO) in their respective county. This ruling means that Sheriffs have the power to push back state and federal orders that are unconstitutional. Mack wrote a book for Sheriffs and their deputies to teach them about their true power, responsibility and constitutional law. Every Sheriff in the USA now has a copy of this book; County Sheriff, America 's Last Hope. It is available for purchase at www.sheriffmack.com Sheriff Mack has a new book with a synopsis of Supreme Court ruling due out June 2010
Kori Anderson and Robin Sackett of the Appleseed project told heart tugging stories from the American Revolution. The program is named after a man who traveled this country, planting apple seeds. Not so he could have apples, but so future generations of Americans could. Appleseed does the same, only it's the unique American heritage they plant - because they want to see it passed on for generations to come. Kori & Robin shared stories of April 19, 1775; not only of the events leading to the revolutionary war, but of the individuals who sacrificed to make those events possible. These stories brought out a range of patriotic emotion - from American pride, two hundred-plus years later, to sadness - not because of the price paid for liberty on that first day, but the shameful fact that most Americans have completely forgotten that price.

Likewise on letting Beth and Derry know we appreciate them.
Imagine what 4 hours of time on 50 stations stations would have cost?
Friends indeed
Outstanding job! O0
How could we NOT help out Beth and Derry? They have been so great to Appleseed, that we would show up at a moments notice if they ever needed us. We had a good time and we were glad we went. There are now more people out there who know about Appleseed and got a snippet of the history, to boot! O0
On a positive note, we met some landowners from Princeton, MO who say their land is perfect for hosting an Appleseed! ^:)^ On an even more positive note, we had a small group of women who were there from Princeton, and said that if we brought Appleseed to them, that they could guarantee a great turnout! :D
We met some great Americans this weekend and we are so glad we went. It is always fun to talk about Appleseed- something Robin and I both are very passionate about! O0 O0

GB,
The landowners are working with ben1775 on a date that we could come and take a look at their land. From the sounds of it, they have quite a bit of land to choose from, but they are thinking of a specific area that they claim has a good backer. Since Ben is semi-close, he was gonna go and take a peek when his schedule allows.
